delivering stable protocols and secure software upon genesis block release
Elliptic curve (secp256k1, ECDSA)

Isn't secp256k1 and ECDSA prone to implementation errors? Why not use EdDSA instead? :)

Those are Bitcoin's primitives, right? Presumably, they're just doing what everyone else does.

Sure, I just thought (based on the genesis block comment) that they were going to make their own. And, well, https://eprint.iacr.org/2014/161.pdf

Using the same primitives as everyone else is probably a conservative choice.
